Is there an Ordered Dictionary?

Is there a dictionary that holds its associations in the same order you
add them in?
So, if I do
dict at: 'first field' put: firstValue
dict at: 'secondfield' put: secondValue
dict associationsDo: [ ... ]
it will do them in order?
BTW, on the subject of dictionaries, are you supposed to use
associationsDo to iterate over all key - value pairs? If so, why is the
name for such a common operation so long and specific (not criticism,
just curiosity... maybe there's a more accepted way to do it)?
Thank you in advance,
Derek
